If you open the TOC file in FrameMaker, do you get any messages? Like maybe
the missing fonts message? That would prevent FrameMaker from opening and
distilling the TOC. You would have to somehow correct that message before
you could print the book.

You could also try printing an actual printer to see if you have the same
problem, or printing to a postscript file and then distilling that.
